Exhibitions 2014

This new display, created with the Preston Women’s Network, brings together objects provided by different female communities to explore the lives of women in Preston.

Through this display visitors can find out about the remarkable women of Preston’s past, how the women of today have succeeded and have been influenced, and how the Network hopes to inspire the women of tomorrow.

Through discussion and creative writing, a number of themes and stories were explored such as Migration, Working Life and Recovery. These are reflected in the personal items provided for the display by members of the Network.
